How do we get a school to design a school based Professional Development programme?

Part One

Look at the Professional Instruction Sequence on page xxxviii
Think of one teacher in the school you used in the the previous activity.
Create a diagram or table that matches the planned activities that teacher would have experienced as part of their PD.
with the typical sequence of professional learning opportunities diagram on pg xxxviii

Here is one we prepared earlier

Then in pairs look at your diagrams/table and see what the BES says about the activities you described.
.
Will they work?

What’s missing?

Be ready to give an analysis of what you find out. (we can put some of your diagrams up if time allows).

Part Two

Imagine you are a lead teacher/principal in the school you are reflecting on.

Design a schoolwide programme for teacher learning. Show it in a flow diagram/table format.





The diagram should cover the types of learning events/activities teachers should enjoy.

Around the Diagram /table include the qualities that the programme must have.


Be ready to share your ideas with everyone.
